Have a lovely weekend.

What are your plans for this weekend? This week was too crazy, so I'm looking forward to just vegging with my boys (and maybe having shrimp and grits for lunch). Also, Alex recently got this helicopter to fly around the living room, and it's pretty much the best thing that has happened in Toby's short life. Hope you have a good relaxing weekend, and here are a few fun links from around the web...

Oh that helicopter! We bought one for my sister in law's boyfriend for Christmas, and my husband loved it so much that that same day he bought himself one, and the next week, another one, and his dad also bought two. So, between the 3 of them, they have 5 of these things! All different, of course...boys will be boys.

the dinner party seating thing made me laugh. my dad's got a very jovial ex-pat friend called kevin browne, we refer to the best seat at a table as 'the kevin browne' seat; in the middle, maximum opportunity to talk and flirt while awkward to access, rendering you unable to assist with any dull serving duties!

At first glance I found that couple to look completely insufferable and annoying (I mean, look at how his scarf is tied!), once I realized, however, that they were French, I was like, "They look so cute!" :)

what a great work/ life NY Times article. I hope a lot of young women read it so that they don't feel like they have to work 100 hour weeks and set a norm for what we all have to work in order to advance in our careers. ppl just feel like they are so replaceable and that if they work so many hours they are contributing something that an employer cannot find anywhere else, making it difficult for others to do anything differently than what the employer is used to. sigh

happy weekend to you too! i found this sweet taxi app today and thought it was the kind of thing that i'd usually find on your blog! thought i'd share: http://suzykrauseandtheskyscrapers.blogspot.ca/2013/03/hailo.html

I grew up with huge pussy willows in our backyard. My mother would snip branches for me to bring for teachers and my dad's office mates. They so much remind me of childhood & how much I loved touching the the branches. I'm all for branches in the home.

I was in NYC for the past week visiting friends and as a KY girl, found myself craving some soul food. We went to Amy Ruth's in Harlem and I now I just have to tell everyone how delicious it was. Chicken & waffles, sweet tea, and even entrees called the "President Barack Obama" and the "Al Roker". I highly suggest checking it out if you ever have the time!
